Our Site Pad Construction Process
Site Evaluation & Planning
We analyze soil conditions, elevation, and drainage requirements to create a tailored house pad plan. This may include the use of structural clay pads, depending on the site’s needs.
Excavation & Land Clearing
We clear debris, vegetation, and unstable soil to prepare a solid base that supports long-term structural integrity.
Grading & Layered Compaction
We build up the pad in lifts, compacting each 6-12 inch layer for maximum stability and erosion resistance. Structural clay pads may be integrated for enhanced strength.
Final Inspection & Preparation
We ensure the build pad meets all specifications and is fully ready for construction to begin.
